“…We define managers as the individuals at multiple hierarchical levels of organizations who contribute to developing and maintaining provider-client relationships (Broschak and Block, 2014;Fichman and Goodman, 1996). Prior research has established that managers' investments in human and social capital help provider-client relationships perform more smoothly and persist over time (Broschak, 2004;Seabright, Levinthal and Fichman, 1992;Uzzi, 1997), managers' migration to other providers disrupts social capital and increases the likelihood provider-client relationships will end (Bermiss and Greenbaum, 2016;Broschak, 2004;Broschak and Block, 2014;Raffiee, 2017;Rogan, 2014;Somaya, Williamson, and Lorinkova, 2008), and managers who migrate to other providers can appropriate relationship-specific social capital and facilitate the movement of clients to those same providers (Raffiee, 2017). In this line of research, the dominant perspective is that the career mobility of people affects market ties between firms (Mawdsley and Somaya, 2016).…”
